I am new to this board and this is my first post. I found the following information from an Aruban newspaper dated June 4th stating that the 3 boys admitting having sex with NH. I was wondering if anyone knows how reliable this newspaper might be, trying to determine if the information is credible. The link is provided.Thanks.

"Police officers in a helicopter and in all terrain vehicles combed the area behind the lighthouse from Arashi to Westpunt in search for Natalee Holloway....Authorities decided to comb the above mentioned area after interrogating the three young men that were last seen with Natalee. The three young men declared that the took Natalee to that area, had sex with her, and then dropped her at the Holiday Inn Resort. The security cameras of the resort however do not show her entering the hotel at any time that evening. As a result of this the three witnesses who saw her last now become suspects."

florida: this is an ap dispatch they printed. ap is very reliable, probably the most reliable journalistic organization on earth. accuracy is their daily bread. they write most of the articles we read in all but the largest newspapers.

DEFINITELY HAVE MUCH MORE HOPE NOW I think these people mean business - he wasn't at all a marshmallow when he was interviewed. The man who is in charge (that is). I was impressed.

Tim has "been there" with the disappearance of his own daughter, Laura. She was one of several young women who went missing for months and even years and then were found buried in an area known NOW as the Killing Fields.

It's a rural area, but also residential--just homes spaced way apart. It is kind of rundown housing. Once I went with a girlfriend of mine to visit her elderly aunts for one of their birthdays. As we got to the end of their road, to turn onto the smaller road in front of their houses, my friend pointed to the empty, overgrown lot on the corner and told me that was the Killing Field.

Accck, I immediately got the heebie-jeebies in the middle of the afternoon and they NEVER went away during the rest of the visit and party. I asked both aunts and all their relatives why in the world they lived ACROSS THE STREET from that. They said it didn't matter to them, the land and houses were cheap.

(Well, I *guess so*!)

Anyway, I went back there several times to visit and just couldn't shake the creeps--but then, I'm a sensitive soul to things like that.

I believe it was 17 months between Laura Miller going missing and her body being found, could be wrong. She was a lucky one--by then, they were really paying attention to the missing girls and that area.

Our other outstanding SAR group here was also founded by the parents of a missing and murdered young girl named Laura--Smithers. That is the Laura Recovery Group, which is older and larger, but doesn't use horses--in fact, they often work hand-in-hand with Tim's group.

*That* Laura was a classmate of one of my nieces and that struck closer to home, since it was in their neighborhood and they all searched for Laura. The LRCF helped Laci Peterson's mom with their early searches, by organizing the volunteers--but they couldn't give more support than that (the volunteers were Modestans, not Texans imported to the scene) because they limit themselves to cases involving children. (They made a small exception for Laci because of Connor being expected.)

More about all that later. I've worked with both in my real work, with fund-raising, grantmaking and corporate giving.

THANK U SO MUCH FOR THE 411 So sorry in posting back so much later in the conversation.

OK, been reading for hours trying to catch up, but to sum it up (in no particular order) we have:

1. The prison is not like mid. ex. and a new shiny one is about to open2. They serve tea at the prison (so bizarre)3. All 3 amigos are going to be put together and questioned4. Last time all 3 were together was when they were first arrested5. Joran wanted to talk to Beth and step dad 24 hours after Natalee last seen. dad there. mom not. joran gets snippy with beth.6. joran wants to look for natalee with rest of island. dad says no.7. there is a dump near or in back of the v.d. sloot house and a pond which hasn't been searched near the kalpoe home8. there's a feud going on between the v.d. sloots and kalpoe family9. we think deepak deals X and roofies10. men in black (guards) from the soul after party may have kidnapped natalee and put her in a trunk to ship her to another island11. Natalee meets Joran one or two days before end of trip -- at the casino in the H.I. 12. Joran gets in scuffle with Mnt. Brook. kids outside CnC on that last night13. mamma sloot in denial about son. thinks he doesn't drink but may be she thinks he doesn't do drugs (greta interview unclear)14. Aruban bloggers say Croes supplied Deepak with roofies which killed Natalee -- possible gang rape15. Joran had sex with natalee and left her sleeping on the beach but didn't want to tell anyone he had sex with her because even though the dutch don't think having sex all the time is a bad thing, joran picks this time to feel embarrassed about it (?!)16. dad holloway thinks papa v.d. sloot is involved17. Deepak email letter is getting a big following

Have I missed anything?

Maybe you and Cali and Dallas could get together and write one of these in this format like twice a day. We could put it several places.

I am working on it absolut! lol Really really I just lagggg right now lol

You caught me and yes, I have been lurking most of the day, with my jaw on the floor I might add, for a number of reasons.

1. I won’t post for fear of being attacked.2. I have no desire to get into the flaming going on tonight. What began as such a fine group and support forum has quickly turned into a complete nightmare.3. FYI – the talk and “chat” on this board far surpasses ANYTHING I have heard here in town. You have 2 scenarios – Natalee is alive or she’s not. That really about sums it up and the only, and I mean only, thing we can do is support her family.

Another thing I find interesting is that I posted a couple of days ago offering to purchase the blue “Hope for Natalee” bracelets (the entire proceeds of which are going to help offset the family’s expenses) for anyone that wanted one. One person asked me to do so.

I won’t leave. I am just waiting for things to calm down. If you saw Beth on Greta tonight, you may understand what a kind, compassionate and graceful woman she is. I don’t know Natalee, but how could the apple NOT fall far from that tree?

I am speaking only for myself (not for anybody else in this community, her classmates or her family) in what I stated above.

Thanks for posting that. Are YOU the guy that I thought mbhs05 was, lol? Also a Dash neighbor? Bless your heart about the bracelets. I didn't know the response was so little.

Can you get Scared-Tom or Red to make you a sticky note for the top of the forum, with BIG LETTERS?

I can't buy anything or donate anything to anyone or from anyone and I'm very sorry about that, because any other time in my life I'd have been helping you out a bunch. {{{Hugss}}}

KKM:

I never saw your info about the bracelets! You have to remember the threads here get so long sometimes we miss things...I'd love to purchase a bracelet...or make a donation. Maybe you should post the info again...yes, on a sticky!

Reports from Aruban bloggers was that Croes was supplying Deepak with rufies (ruphynol) and it was Deepak that drugged Natalee. Was the plan to gang rape her? Reports were that she died from the drugs.

OK. Now THIS seems rather interesting. Inside info? any of our Aruba friends on? What's the scoop with this or did we cover this and I missed it. (S-t-i-l-l r-e-a-d-i-n-g)
